Voters' hands raised

Endorsement Vote at Next Membership Meeting Sept 18th

Meetings

Join us for one of the most exciting meetings of the year! The board has made its recommendations for endorsement, and now the membership will vote to determine who will get the organization’s full-fledged support. Here are the details .

Wednesday, September 18th at 7PM
Phinney Neighborhood Center – Lower Building
6615 Dayton Ave N

Just a reminder on the endorsement voting procedure: the recommendation put forward by the Executive Board will be the first motion heard, and it requires a simply majority to pass. If it fails, or if there is no recommendation, a member may make a motion from the floor. Any motion from the floor requires a 2/3 vote to be successful. Check out these links for more information:
